20Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key to the bottomless pit, with a large chain in his hand.G2532G1492G32G2597G1537G3772G2192G2807G12G2532G3173G254G1909G846G54952He captured the dragon, that ancient serpent, also known as the devil and Satan, and tied him up for a thousand years.G2532G2902G1404G744G3789G3739G2076G1228G2532G4567G2532G1210G846G5507G20943He threw him into the bottomless pit, locked it, and sealed it over him to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were over. After that he must be set free for a little while.G2532G906G846G1519G12G2532G2808G846G2808G2532G4972G1883G846G3363G4105G1484G3363G2089G891G5507G2094G5055G2532G3326G5023G846G1163G3089G3398G5550
The Vision of the First Resurrection
4Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given authority to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or hands. They came back to life and ruled with the Messiah for a thousand years.G2532G1492G2362G2532G2523G1909G846G2532G2917G1325G846G2532G5590G3990G1223G3141G2424G2532G1223G3056G2316G2532G3748G4352G3756G4352G2342G3777G846G1504G2532G3756G2983G5480G1909G846G3359G2532G1909G846G5495G2532G2198G2532G936G3326G5547G5507G20945The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years were over. This is the first resurrection.G1161G3062G3498G326G3756G326G2193G5507G2094G5055G3778G4413G3866How blessed and holy are those who participate in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them. They will be priests of God and the Messiah, and will rule with him for a thousand years.G3107G2532G40G2192G3313G1722G4413G386G1909G5130G1208G2288G2192G3756G1849G235G2071G2409G2316G2532G5547G2532G936G3326G846G5507G2094
The Vision of the Final Judgment
7When the thousand years are over, Satan will be freed from his prison.G2532G3752G5507G2094G5055G4567G3089G1537G846G54388He will go out to deceive Gog and Magog, the nations at the four corners of the earth, and gather them for war. They are as numerous as the sands of the seashore.G2532G1831G4105G1484G3588G1722G5064G1137G1093G1136G2532G3098G4863G846G4863G1519G4171G706G3739G5613G285G22819They marched over the broad expanse of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. Fire came from God out of heaven and burned them up,G2532G305G1909G4114G1093G2532G2944G3925G40G2944G2532G25G4172G2532G4442G2597G575G2316G1537G3772G2532G2719G84610and the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet were. They will be tortured day and night forever and ever.G2532G1228G4105G846G906G1519G3041G4442G2532G2303G3699G2342G2532G5578G2532G928G2250G2532G3571G1519G165G165
The Vision of the White Throne Judgment
11Then I saw a large, white throne and the one who was sitting on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and no place was found for them.G2532G1492G3173G3022G2362G2532G2521G1909G846G575G3739G4383G1093G2532G3772G5343G2532G2147G3756G5117G84612I saw the dead, both unimportant and important, standing in front of the throne, and books were open. Another book was opened - the Book of Life. The dead were judged according to their actions, as recorded in the books.G2532G1492G3498G3398G2532G3173G2476G1799G2316G2532G975G455G2532G243G975G455G3739G2076G2222G2532G3498G2919G1537G1125G1722G975G2596G846G204113The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and all were judged according to their actions.G2532G2281G1325G3498G3588G1722G846G2532G2288G2532G86G1325G3498G3588G1722G846G2532G2919G1538G2596G846G204114Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. (This is the second death - the lake of fire.)G2532G2288G2532G86G906G1519G3041G4442G3778G2076G1208G228815Anyone whose name was not found written in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.G2532G1536G2147G3756G2147G1125G1722G976G2222G906G1519G3041G4442
